router.get request code example

Example 1: app.get

const express = require('express');
const app = express();

const { getElementById, getIndexById, updateElement,
  seedElements, createElement } = require('./utils');

const PORT = process.env.PORT || 4001;
// Use static server to serve the Express Yourself Website
app.use(express.static('public'));

const expressions = [];
seedElements(expressions, 'expressions');
const animals = [];
seedElements(animals, 'animals');

// Get all expressions
app.get('/expressions', (req, res, next) => {
  res.send(expressions);
});

// Get a single expression
app.get('/expressions/:id', (req, res, next) => {
  const foundExpression = getElementById(req.params.id, expressions);
  if (foundExpression) {
    res.send(foundExpression);
  } else {
    res.status(404).send();
  }
});

// Update an expression
app.put('/expressions/:id', (req, res, next) => {
  const expressionIndex = getIndexById(req.params.id, expressions);
  if (expressionIndex !== -1) {
    updateElement(req.params.id, req.query, expressions);
    res.send(expressions[expressionIndex]);
  } else {
    res.status(404).send();
  }
});

// Create an expression
app.post('/expressions', (req, res, next) => {
  const receivedExpression = createElement('expressions', req.query);
  if (receivedExpression) {
    expressions.push(receivedExpression);
    res.status(201).send(receivedExpression);
  } else {
    res.status(400).send();
  }
});

// Delete an expression
app.delete('/expressions/:id', (req, res, next) => {
  const expressionIndex = getIndexById(req.params.id, expressions);
  if (expressionIndex !== -1) {
    expressions.splice(expressionIndex, 1);
    res.status(204).send();
  } else {
    res.status(404).send();
  }
});

// Get all animals
app.get('/animals', (req, res, next) => {
  res.send(animals);
});

// Get a single animal
app.get('/animals/:id', (req, res, next) => {
  const animal = getElementById(req.params.id, animals);
  if (animal) {
    res.send(animal);
  } else {
    res.status(404).send();
  }
});

// Create an animal
app.post('/animals', (req, res, next) => {
  const receivedAnimal = createElement('animals', req.query);
  if (receivedAnimal) {
    animals.push(receivedAnimal);
    res.status(201).send(receivedAnimal);
  } else {
    res.status(400).send();
  }
});

// Update an animal
app.put('/animals/:id', (req, res, next) => {
  const animalIndex = getIndexById(req.params.id, animals);
  if (animalIndex !== -1) {
    updateElement(req.params.id, req.query, animals);
    res.send(animals[animalIndex]);
  } else {
    res.status(404).send();
  }
});

// Delete a single animal
app.delete('/animals/:id', (req, res, next) => {
  const animalIndex = getIndexById(req.params.id, animals);
  if (animalIndex !== -1) {
    animals.splice(animalIndex, 1);
    res.status(204).send();
  } else {
    res.status(404).send();
  }
});

app.listen(PORT, () => {
  console.log(`Server is listening on ${PORT}`);
});

Example 2: express get all routes and methods

function print (path, layer) {
  if (layer.route) {
    layer.route.stack.forEach(print.bind(null, path.concat(split(layer.route.path))))
  } else if (layer.name === 'router' && layer.handle.stack) {
    layer.handle.stack.forEach(print.bind(null, path.concat(split(layer.regexp))))
  } else if (layer.method) {
    console.log('%s /%s',
      layer.method.toUpperCase(),
      path.concat(split(layer.regexp)).filter(Boolean).join('/'))
  }
}

function split (thing) {
  if (typeof thing === 'string') {
    return thing.split('/')
  } else if (thing.fast_slash) {
    return ''
  } else {
    var match = thing.toString()
      .replace('\\/?', '')
      .replace('(?=\\/|$)', '$')
      .match(/^\/\^((?:\\[.*+?^${}()|[\]\\\/]|[^.*+?^${}()|[\]\\\/])*)\$\//)
    return match
      ? match[1].replace(/\\(.)/g, '$1').split('/')
      : '<complex:' + thing.toString() + '>'
  }
}

app._router.stack.forEach(print.bind(null, []))
